Origanum syriacum, also known as bible hyssop or Syrian oregano, is an aromatic perennial herb in the mint family. It is native to the Middle East and is commonly used in the spice mixture za'atar. The plant is pollinated by bees and has small white or pale pink flowers. In some English translations of the Bible, it is referred to as hyssop, but this is believed to be a different plant. There are also other types of ezov, such as Persian-hyssop and Roman-hyssop, that are often confused with Origanum syriacum. Due to its high demand, the plant is now being cultivated, but it is also protected under Israeli law as an endangered species.
